Another good stay at Jan's place

mikeAugust 2016

Our first experience of Airbnb... A very welcoming host. So thankful to have somewhere as clean, warm and the 'at home' feeling that is missed when away... Thank you Jan, we recommend her anytime.

JillApril 2016

I stayed with Jan for one night this week. The room was great-clean, comfortable and with everything necessary such as drink making facilities and Wi-Fi. Jan also provided a lovely continental breakfast. I styed in Nether Stowey as I was walking in the Quantocks the following day and this accommodation is in an excellent location for the hills. Jan was warm and welcoming and I will certainly visit again. This was my first Airbnb experience and was a great start!

IanMay 2016

Good again thanks Jan

Jan made me feel incredibly welcome for the duration of my short stay. Jan is really friendly and helpful. The room was great, very comfy bed and quiet. Jan really is a great host with a lovely house and garden. Can't recommend this listing enough. Thanks for having me Jan!

SimonMay 2016

We had a wonderful stay at Jan's house. Her home is beautiful and spotlessly clean! Jan was lovely, kind and welcoming. The breakfast was a lovely surprise - the first time it's been included in an Air BnB stay for us, and it was a joy to eat it overlooking the pretty garden. The village was good, we ate at the local pub which served very nice food and were also able to pick up bits and pieces from the village shop too. We would definitely stay again and recommend it to friends too.

A delightful private cottage annexe with separate entrance located approximately 5 miles from the Quantock Hills and with pubs 1 mile in either direction . The annexe has recently been refurbished and is situated in a quiet hamlet .

Rustic and cosy with a modern kitchen and clean living space with small open plan living room/ diner . Multi channel TV and full wifi access , good cellular connectivity ( rare in a rural location ) . The kitchen has slate underfloor heating for winter warmth. Please note this is not good for someone who lacks mobility as the stairs whilst rustic and cottage style are very steep . The bathroom is clean and boasts a fabulous bath only ( no shower ) .
Guess access is private and fully separate . This is an annexe at the end of a larger house/cottage .
Will be available for help / guidance if necessary but only if asked. Full privacy respected.

The neighbourhood is a small hamlet with a larger village about 1 mile away .There is open countryside in the area and the quantock hills are about 5 miles away and within view of the cottage.
You will need a car to get about .
This is a rural location with pubs within a mile or so drive . Local shops are also a mile away and do not open late so it's advisable to bring some food with you if you drive late in the day .

A delightful little cottage fitting the description on the listing. Furthermore I was greeted by a lovely host, and a pretty vase of flowers making me feel very welcome.

ConnieMay 2016

Diana met me as I got lost in a lane nearby. A gorgeous welcome card and posy to greet me and they couldn't do anymore for me. Highly recommend

SamOctober 2016

Wonderful hosts.Perfect for what we wanted.

richardJune 2016

a fantastic location in the beautiful Somerset countryside, perfect for exploring or relaxing. the accommodation was extremely comfortable and well equipped for our break. Diane was welcoming and on hand if required, will definitely look to book again in the future.

CraigJune 2016

It really was a great little cottage! Everything we needed and very clean, quiet and comfortable. Very private with a side entrance. Off street parking was a plus since we had a rental car as I was worried about damaging it. Easy to get to lots of destinations in Somerset as well. Diane, her husband and whiskey the Scottie were great and very accommodating. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quiet place to stay in the beautiful countryside.

VincentJuly 2016

I loved staying in the cottage. It was spacious and clean and felt very homely. Diane was very welcoming and went out of her way to make me feel at home. She also had some great tips for exploring the beautiful Somerset countryside and was always available of needed. I would definitely recommend staying in the cottage.

CarolinAugust 2016

We had a great stay at the country cottage. When we arrived Diane was there to greet us and tell us about the area. The accommodation was clean and tidy, a really lovely space to relax in. It's also very private from the main house too, so you don't feel as if you're there with anyone else. There is a pub about a 10 minute walk away which does lovely food. You will need a car to get about but we drove to some lovely walks in the quantocks, perfect with a little doggy.

PascaleJuly 2016

This was a fantastic cottage. Diane was so lovely, so welcoming and helpful. She has a beautiful garden and the cottage is in a good location. Beautiful country drive and Diane made our stay comfortable with no hassle. Definitely recommend it to anyone. 10/10. Thanks for such a wonderful stay. Pav & Chay

Quantock cottage is a quirky 17th cottage nestled at the foothills of the Quantocks in a small rural village and is situated in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Exposed beams, inglenook fireplace and other features makes this cottage appealing

17th century quirky stone cottage with some original features and a private enclosed 65' rear garden. All bed linen and towels included.

Very pleased to have spent three nights at Quantock Cottage. The owner was very helpful with all communications. The cottage is exactly as described and the log burner & fireplace are a great key feature. Sitting in the beautiful garden eating breakfast listening to the bird song was a delight. The area is so peaceful we saw a buzzard whilst our walking in the fields just a few hundred yards from the village!! Highly recommended.

WayneMay 2016

Excellent weekend; ideal location for exploring Somerset and Devon. Cottage well equipped and much larger than expected but cosy. Had a pretty garden and log burner so nothing left you could ask for!

AnneOctober 2016

We had a really lovely time staying at Quantock Cottage. It's in a beautiful part of the country in Stogursey. We were very well informed by Julie about everything we needed to know, and the cottage was very well equipped. It was especially lovely for us as our friend lives just down the road from Quantock Cottage, so we were able to be near to her. Thank you Julie x we would definitely return

SueJune 2016

The stay at Julies cottage was wonderful. We felt at ease from the very first second we entered this beautiful, cosy, clean and well-equipped place. Julie made us feel welcome by providing us (and our dog) with tasty biscuits, tea and coffee as well as some logs for the amazing fireplace. The cottage is exactly as described but even more spacious than it seems on the photos. The communication with Julie was really good and there were lots of useful informations about things to do provided in the cottage. We enjoyed the exceptional place with its lovely garden a lot and we hope to be able to come back very soon. Thanks a lot for everything!

AnnaApril 2016

Great little village and amazing house. We had everything we needed. It was perfect for a weekend away.

OanaOctober 2016

Julie was a fantastic host. She rang me a few days prior to my arrival and gave me all the information that I need. The cottage is beautiful. It is very spacious and plenty of doom for 4 adults. We also had 2 dogs with us and the area was perfect for taking them for walks around the castle and mill which were on the doorstep. Thank you very much for allowing us to stay here Julie. I would definitely recommend.

katieOctober 2016

It is a charming and cosy cottage in the countryside, in a small village. Tranquil and beautiful location, easy driving distance to many attractions such as the coastline and Jurassic beaches, Dunbar castle and medieval village, Cheddar gorge and many others. We really loved our stay there!

AndySeptember 2016

Communication with Julie was smooth and easy. No stress about later arrival time. The village is quiet and surrounded by fields. The house itself is a real treat with log burner and logs to use!! Clean and bright home with a lovely feel, ample space and feels welcoming. Easy to park outside and a garden to enjoy at the back of the property. A lovely little retreat :)

Hello and welcome to Gramarye House, a period home in a rural village and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. I hope my house will be a home from home for you. Your spacious room has a hospitality tray and kettle and there is free wi fi, a lovely dining room looking onto the garden which you are welcome to sit out in. I am on hand for requests such as laundry, ironing, newspapers or evening meals (for a small reasonable extra cost) .
The village has a pub with great food and a community village shop (and Post Office) for a very wide range of essentials and local produce and a good selection of wines and beers. Accompanied walks around the village and in the nearby Quantock HIlls or Jurassic coast can be arranged and cyclists are welcome. There is ample garage space for bikes to be stored. Cream teas, packed lunches and evening meals also available on request - (24 hours notice if poss please)
The room is very spacious, bright and light. There are two other rooms equally lovely and to suit combinations of friends sharing a twin or couples. All have luxury ensuites with either bath or shower. The dining room is spacious and overlooks the back garden which is perfect for sunbathing or a chilled glass of wine after a long walk. Wi fi access, a range of teas and coffee in the room, hairdryer, access to an iron - full English breakfast (at extra cost) and sensitivity to dietary requirements - all add to a home from home but luxury feel - without being starchy. Sorry, this is not suitable for dogs or children under 16.
This is my home. I live here and I want you to be as happy here as I am during your stay. I am almost always around and am available to help with anything you need, if I can.

Spaxton is a real rural village. Not chocolate boxy or a dormitory village, there are farming families here who have been working these fields for generations. Please respect that, close gates in fields and stick to the footpaths - there are loads. There is fabulous walking, cycling and bird watching to be had on the hills and the coats is only a 15 minute drive with the rugged cliffs of Kilve and East Quantoxhead to the marshes at Steart. For the less energetic a stroll around the village will show you the historic church, pub and shop where you can stop for a coffee or ice cream. There are few pavements and no streetlights so a torch and a high vis something might be helpful if you plan an evening in the pub.
There is little or no public transport but if you do not or don't want to drive there is plenty to see by just walking locally. Taxis are available from Taunton ( 15/20 mins) or Bridgwater ( 10/15 mins) train or bus station respectively . We may also be able to collect and drop you off at less than a taxi by advance arrangement.

Melanie was a wonderful host made us both very welcome.room was lovely and clean. Village location very rural and peaceful. Village shop selling local produce, nice village pub

Triscombe is a small hamlet nestled on the foot of the Quantock Hills. There are a few cottages, a tearoom, plant nursery and a pub right opposite our house, Triscombe Farm. Our Victorian barns were built in the late 1800s. Cattle used to roam in what is now the Cows Barn and you can guess what the Hay Barn was used for. Above the tackroom, the stable groom kept himself warm by the fireplace which you can still find in the Grooms Studio. Brick detailing around windows and doors show the age of the stable block. The tack room has its original saddle mounts and oak stables are keeping the original style. Hay is now stored in the coach house.
The barns have their own entrance and parking separate from the house but shared by the horse stables. The Grooms Studio is acccessed through the Tack Room.
You are welcome to go for a walk on our 30 acre farm; through fields with sheep and horses, follow the tracks in our little wood and cross the stream.
We live at Triscombe Farm close to the barns and are happy to help! Your host Shanti should be there to welcome and show you around. Your host speaks English, Dutch, French and German.

The Quantock Hills with deep wooded valleys, open heath land and rich flora and fauna are ideal for walking, cycling and horseriding. From the barns and the top of the hills you can enjoy amazing views of the Bristol Channel, Wales, the Mendip Hills and Exmoor. Your welcome pack will include a long list of things to do: steam train, beach, fossil hunt, tea room, kids farm, castle visit, pubs, brewery, gardens....
Triscombe is a 3 hour drive from London, 1h south of Bristol and 1h north of Exeter. A fast train takes you from Paddington to Taunton in under 2 hours. The taxi ride from Taunton to Triscombe is just over 15 minutes.
Once you've made it to the barns, you won't need much transport if you do an online shop beforehand and eat at the pub opposite!
Please note the barns are close to our stables and riding arena, we spend quite a bit of time there :) .

This country farm flat was the perfect get away for me and my partner. We were welcomed with a host of vegetables that were sourced from the on-site veg plot on our arrival in to the flat which was spic and span. The location was perfect for us; we were able to use several footpaths to walk up to some look out points close to the property. Shanti was a great host, warm and accommodating. Highly recommend this property.

The 2 lets Tilbury View & Tilbury Cottage are in a converted barn in the grounds of a 17th century farmstead above West Bagborough in the Quantock Hills - an Area of Outstanding Beauty. Walk to an exceptional local pub and within the farm's 50 acres.

Tilbury farm has 2 Holiday Lets located in the same barn and seperated by the guest laundry. The converted barn has one en-suite bedroom with a king size bed sleeping two guests very comfortably. There is a separate living room with open plan kitchen. Within the living room there is a TV with DVD player.
Guests have access to a separate laundry with washing machine and dryer. Guests can walk through the fields and there is a lawned area in front of the cottage.
The owners live onsite in the 17th century farmhouse but the cottage still maintains privacy and a separate parking area.

The farm is located high up on the Quantock Hills with amazing far-reaching views and access to miles of footpaths / mountain bike cycling paths.
Parking is provided just outside the cottage. Taxis can be arranged from Taunton Railway Station - 15 minutes drive.

Matt has a beautiful Cottage, perfect for a relaxing get away. He is very welcoming and relaxed and made sure we had all we needed but wasn't intrusive. He has thought about every detail, coffee and biscuits, breakfast foods from the local farm shop for the first morning, a welcome pack overflowing with info on the area, things to do, sights and attractions, etc. The views are incredible, and after a little walk through his fields you can reach the summit of the quantock hills and and take in the views from there also. The Cottage is perfectly situated for many sights further afield, include exmoor national park, north devon, and many of the national trust buildings and locations. We would highly recommend this listing.

The surrounding countryside to this cottage is unrivalled in its beauty. The cottage itself is gorgeous. The furnishings are lovely, and extremely comfortable. We will definitely be returning, but next time, for longer. Thank you to our hosts for a perfect weekend.

Hi Matt Thank you for making us feel so welcome. The cottage was lovely all the goodies you left us were very much enjoyed. The maps came in very useful and the walking guidebooks gave us some goods walks to undertake. The scenery around the cottage was beautiful. With many thanks Julie and Chris

JulieAugust 2015

Brilliant stay, such a great place to stay with scenic views which was so peaceful! We were greeted by Matt who showed us around and he gave us a welcome hamper which was fantastic, he also provided us with a cot and high chair so made to feel welcome and comfortable at Tilbury Farm. Beautiful home with everything you need and would recommend this to anyone!

If I could give 6 stars for the view, I would. This place is a little piece of heaven. The peace and tranquility are intoxicating, away from the circus and mayhem of city life. The converted barn is very high quality, spacious high ceilings with wooden beams. Watch the rabbits in the morning and listen to the birds. The hosts couldn't be better, kinder, friendlier. Highly recommended, would love to return one day, thank you Matt.

More spacious than we expected from the pictures, would definitely recommend and hope to be back!

A fully self contained peaceful retreat for two people in the heart of the Quantock Hills, which offer fantastic walking and cycling.

Nestling in the secluded heart of the Quantock Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, The Studio is a self-contained self-catering apartment in the grounds of Great Quantock Farm. Step outside your door and you have unparalleled access in every direction to the miles of footpaths and bridleways that crisscross their way over the stunning Quantock countryside stretching from the Somerset coast to the north to the pretty county town of Taunton to the South.
The Studio comprises a large bedsitting room with double bed and sofa, an ensuite shower room with separate wc, and a newly fitted kitchen diner with beautiful Kirkstone flooring, fridge, cooker, dishwasher and seating area. There is an LED freeview tv/dvd, plus dvds, games and books. Please note that the main bed is a double, so the Studio is best suited to couples. However, we can provide separate sleeping arrangements with a sofa bed if two friends want to use it, which may appeal to mountain bikers. Due to the secluded location, we cannot currently offer wifi inside the Studio itself (although you can link to our network in proximity to the house) so you really are getting away from it all! There is ample parking, and bed linen and towels are provided, as are tea, coffee and milk.
Great Quantock is the highest house in the hills. It is tucked away down nearly one mile of unmade track and sits within 15 acres of its own pasture and woodland. We have several characterful country pubs within a short drive or picturesque walk. We are also on the fringes of Exmoor and close to the dramatic north Somerset coast, while the wonderful sandy beaches and surfing of North Devon make an excellent day out.
A perfect haven for walkers and cyclists. Riders, we may be able to accommodate your horses by arrangement. Unfortunately we cannot accept dogs. No smoking.
The Quantocks is a stunning area of countryside yet still relatively unknown and under visited. The views across to Exmoor to the West, the Somerset Levels to the East and the Bristol Channel to the north are breathtaking. We have a host of pretty villages tucked among the hills with lovely pubs and tea rooms nearby.
A car is essential to get here as we are very tucked away. However, the walking/cycling is on your doorstep.
All the facilities of a fully fitted self catering apartment. Access to 15 acres of our own pasture and woodland plus the Quantock Hills beyond.
We have just created a new picnic and barbecue area a short distance from the Studio for the exclusive use of our guests. The views from here are lovely. You will also have access to our own large terrace with seating area by arrangement.
The guest accommodation is entirely separate from the house and fully self-contained. We will be happy to answer any questions you may have and give advice on the local area but you really can get away from it all here!

This is an extremely pretty area with thousands of acres of accessible countryside, dotted with delightful villages. We are close to the dramatic Somerset coastline to the north and a reasonable drive from many attractions including the surfing beaches of North Devon.
We are in a very secluded location away from public transport links so a car is essential to get to Great Quantock. However, if you have come to walk or cycle you will not need a car to access this.
There will be some basic supplies waiting for you in the Studio, but as we are some distance from a shop, you may want to come prepared with a little shopping.
The main farmhouse is a family home, and we have dogs, cats and horses so if you have allergies this may not be the place for you. There are steps up to the front door, and steps down into the kitchen making this unsuitable for wheelchair users, we are so sorry.

This is a lovely place to say but it is out it the middle of nowhere if this is what you want it's perfect. The studio was a really nice space and really well equipped and there were lots of little extras. The hosts were very helpful and welcoming . Would really recommend.

belinda September 2016

Everything was just perfect from start to finish. Just wish we could have stayed longer. Accommodation was clean and tidy with everything we needed for our stay. A warm welcome from Julie on our arrival. A little piece of heaven. We will definitely be returning.

An absolutely gorgeous few days chilling in the Quantocks! Julie and her family were so very welcoming and it made the perfect stopover before our onward journey to Glastonbury. HIGHLY recommend staying here if you are after a place 'get away from it all' in picturesque privacy. Five stars!

We were made to feel very welcome - the location is brilliant and secluded, and close to walking paths and bike routes too. The Studio was warm and comfortable with everything you might need.

Staying at Julie's was like living a dream... Julie is so kind , flexible & helpful!! It's a wonderful studio, all is available, even detailed map of gorgeous environment, DVD's (Mr English cracked me up), well equiped kitchen wich is much bigger than i expected! Staying at this beautiful peaceful place , being accompanied by horses, dogs & cats, was just what i wanted!! Its a perfect base for excursions but lot's to enjoy on walking distance- if you like nature & really want to get away (no internet & mobile coverage is poor, which i liked very much- although if you want you have reception outside on the lane) Loved the details and extras Julie provided!! Fruit, croissants, biscuits..everything is brought with an extra touch! I felt like a real guest & seen the high standard actually the price to stay overnight is quiet low, comparing other Airbnb places. Thank you Julie!

MirjamAugust 2015

Julie's farm is a great place to get away to. Julie made us feel very welcome. The studio is lovely. Everything we needed.

TracyMarch 2016

Thank you Julie for the lovely stay! We really enjoyed ourselves. Considering how remote the place is it was very easy to find, and a great base for a big day walk over the hills. We were provided with an OS map of the area which was very useful. There is no phone signal in the area which was great to get away from it all. Would happily stay again, thanks!

Grade 1 listed Crowcombe Court is located at the foothills of the Quantock Hills.
Apartment 2 in the South Wing is the former stable block, and whilst providing comfortable accommodation for families, groups and walkers it maintains the charm and elegance of the Georgian manor house and grounds in which it is found.
Crowcombe Court is still a private home, but is also available as a wedding venue and hire for private parties and events.
The village of Crowcombe has a pub and village shop.

Apartment 2 in the South Wing of Crowcombe Court has 2 double bedrooms and 1 single bedroom - there is a shared family bathroom with a shower over the bath - the living area is open plan, with a kitchen area, seating area and dining area.
There is a communal orchard garden which is shared by the apartments in South Wing.
Guests staying in the apartments of South Wing will have access to the communal orchard garden, but not to the rest of the Crowcombe Court estate.

The village pub, The Carew Arms, is located 300m away at the bottom of the drive.
There is a community run village shop selling essentials.

We loved the south wing appartment at Crowcombe court. It was well furnished in English style. Everything was there and very clean. It was a perfect well equiped stay to discover Somerset with my family (5 persons). I loved the typical English style of the apartment, which was very spacy and light. It was nice talking to Adrian every morning, when he fetched his newspaper. Everything was well communicated and organized. Exactly like the adverticement described. We also enjoyed the privacy we did get during our stay and the beautifull nature all around Crowecombe. Especially the nature reservate park at the top of the hills. It is a perfect place for families with 4 till 5 persons, like us. Thanks for having us. We certainly recommend this beautiful apartment to others. Best wishes from the family Groeneveld from Holland.

David is a charming host and the house and setting are exceptional. The recently redecorated 3 bedroom apartment is spacious and well appointed. I can strongly recommend this apartment. It would suit families looking for a summer stay in exceptionally beautiful setting. The village of Crowcombe is delightful and its position nestled at the western base of the Quantock hills makes it a perfect base for walking or cycling in the area.

We were very happy with the apartment which corresponds to the description. both Georgina and Alisdair made us feel very welcome and were extremely helpful. I can thoroughly recommend the apartment. It is a wonderful setting with the manor house,church, village and the backdrop of the Quantocks. Crowcombe court is ideally situated from walking and exploring the Quantocks, Brendon hills, Exmoor and the north Devon Coastal Path. Certainly a place to return to.

Located at the foot of the Quantock Hills, within the curtilage of Gothelney Hall (a beautiful Grade I listed farmhouse, family home and working farm), the Stableblock is a recently and lovingly restored space which can accommodate up to 4 people.

In the heart of the English countryside and at the foot of the Quantock Hills, Gothelney Hall and the land on which it stands has been settled on as far back as 1026. Referenced "Godelege" (Good Meadow) in the Doomsday Book, and renamed "Gothelney" ('open fields') in Anglo Saxon times the land here has been farmed for over a thousand years.
Its current guardians, we are in the midst of a process of renovation of the Hall and its outbuildings, the Stable Block being the most recent (and completed) example. We offer its spacious, yet warm and characterful environment for your exclusive use during your stay.
Guests have exclusive access to The Stableblock for the entirety of their stay, although the main meeting and utility rooms will be locked (access by arrangement).
We would ask guests to check in between 12 and 5pm & checkout by 11am, although we may be able to be flexible, please ask.
We look forward to welcoming you warmly, and sharing with you our experience of the local area. Somerset and it neighboring counties has so much to explore. We are on hand to offer as much or as little advice as you like.
Breakfast is available, although at an extra charge & by prior arrangement - a well appointed kitchen is available for your use and we are happy to put together a hamper using produce from right here on the farm.
Although we live on site, we intend for our guests to have as private and independent stay as they desire.

Despite our rural location, we are surprisingly well connected. 10 minutes from the M5 and Bridgwater, 25 minutes from Taunton, 50 minutes from Bristol Airport, around 2hrs30mins from London. For an additional charge we may be available to collect and drop guests off.
We have a ready supply of logs and kindling if you wish to relax by either of the Stableblock's wood burners. If your stay is longer or more exerting, we are happy to open the utility room for clothes washing for a nominal fee. On the farm there are dogs and other animals.

We have just spent the most enjoyable 5 days at Gothelney. We could not fault the stable block which has been appointed to a very high standard throughout and was comfortable, cosy and with beautiful furnishings and lovely touches like fresh flowers. The farm and surroundings are very interesting and the views are lovely. It is well situated for Exmoor, Wells, Cheddar, Dunster and Kilve beach which are all a short drive away and well worth visiting. Fred and his family go the extra mile to make your stay an absolute pleasure and are warm, friendly and generous. The locally produced breakfast goodies are highly recommended as are the sausages. Thank you Fred and family, it was a lovely holiday and we would love to stay with you again!

AmandaAugust 2016

The stable block is so wonderful. The photos don't even do it justice. It's huge and really well renovated. We had a great time and would definitely go back.

Lauren and AlexMay 2016

Gothenley Hall stables was an amazing place to stay. The photos on Airbnb don't do the place justice. Fred and his Mum were most helpful and welcoming to us. We stayed to break the journey from Legoland to Cornwall. 5 pounds cheaper to stay in this amazing spot than it was to have 1 room at the hotel at bridge water services. To conclude the place is fabulous!

ThereseJuly 2016

A beautiful rural location which is near the M5 and easy to find. Incredibly well equipped, large, spotless and comfortable period accommodation set within an elegant and fascinating working farm. The hosts were fantastic and we couldn't have asked for more from our two night stay, certainly would stay again. Perfect!

AdamAugust 2016

We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful place to stay, pictures do not do it justice at all. My only regret is we didn't book for longer!

JohnSeptember 2016

I can't recommend this welcoming and beautiful farm enough. The accommodation itself is far more spacious than the pictures suggest, the beds really comfortable, it's clean and beautifully furnished. Fred and Victoria made us feel at home straight away, we were able to walk around the grounds and arrived just in time for feeding time of the pigs. Very quick drive to a Kilve for a lovely coastal walk. My only wish is that we could have stayed longer and explored the area more.

SamiSeptember 2016

Host was welcoming. Accommodation was lovely, wonderful setting.

DebbieFebruary 2016

The host was exceedingly flexible. As it was our wedding day we had to get a family member to collect keys and had to change time last minute but Fred was very acomodating and didn´t mind.

It also has a flat-screen television (with Freeview and DVD player) and a fantastic view of the Village of Nether Stowey - Oh, and there's some sherry as well.
The Old Cider House is a 4 star (Visit Britain) guest house in the heart of the Village of Nether Stowey, Quantock Hills, Somerset. With its five en suite bedrooms, owners Ian and Lynne welcome guests looking for a relaxing break in their friendly guesthouse. If you’re looking for accommodation in the Quantocks then Nether Stowey is the ideal village location.
The house was built in 1910, the guesthouse was originally a cider house serving the village of Nether Stowey and surrounding Somerset villages in the Quantock Hills. It was converted into a B&B in 2002 and has since welcomed both leisure and business guests in need of quality en-suite bed and breakfast accommodation in the heart of Somerset.
The Quantock Hills are on the doorstep and the village of Nether Stowey boasts three real ale pubs, several cafes and shops all of which are less than a few minutes walk from the guest house.

A stunning super king ensuite room with separate bath and shower in a beautiful Georgian house. Simple breakfast of tea/coffee, toast, cereal included in the room rate.
Full English Breakfast (£6.50 per head) or two course evening meal (£11

3 rooms available - king, super king or twin - all ensuite

Hello and welcome to Gramarye House, a period home in a rural village and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. I hope my house will be a home from home for you. Your spacious room has a hospitality tray and kettle and there is free wi fi, a lovely dining room looking onto the garden which you are welcome to sit out in. I am on hand for requests such as laundry, ironing, newspapers or evening meals (for a small reasonable extra cost) .
The village has a pub with great food and a community village shop (and Post Office) for a very wide range of essentials and local produce and a good selection of wines and beers. Accompanied walks around the village and in the nearby Quantock HIlls or Jurassic coast can be arranged and cyclists are welcome. There is ample garage space for bikes to be stored. Cream teas, packed lunches and evening meals also available on request - (24 hours notice please)
The room is very spacious, bright and light. There are two other rooms
equally lovely and to suit combinations of friends sharing a twin or couples. All have luxury ensuites with either bath or shower. The dining room is spacious and overlooks the back garden which is perfect for sunbathing or a chilled glass of wine after a long walk. Wi fi access, a range of teas and coffee in the room, hairdryer, access to an iron - full English breakfast (at extra cost) and sensitivity to dietary requirements - all add to a home from home but luxury feel - without being starchy. Sorry, this is not suitable for dogs or children under 16.
This is my home. I live here and I want you to be as happy here as I am during your stay. I am almost always around and am available to help with anything you need, if I can.

Spaxton is a real rural village. Not chocolate boxy or a dormitory village, there are farming families here who have been working these fields for generations. Please respect that, close gates in fields and stick to the footpaths - there are loads. There is fabulous walking, cycling and bird watching to be had on the hills and the coast is only a 15 minute drive away with the rugged cliffs of Kilve and East Quantoxhead to the marshes at Steart. For the less energetic a stroll around the village will show you the historic church, pub and shop where you can stop for a coffee or ice cream. There are few pavements and no streetlights so a torch and a high vis something might be helpful if you plan an evening in the pub.
There is little or no public transport but if you do not or don't want to drive there is plenty to see by just walking locally. Taxis are available from Taunton ( 15/20 mins) or Bridgwater ( 10/15 mins) train or bus station respectively . We may also be able to collect and drop you off at less than a taxi by advance arrangement.

A haven of traquility, and very handy if you want somewhere close to Hinkley Point.

Melanie is the best host I have ever stayed with. Her home is made yours for your stay. She is determined to ensure you are happy and feel at home, with her understanding of you as a customer. Andrew enjoyed her full breakfast, I celebrated the flexibility of her service. Our stay was also enhanced by a personally cooked evening meal. All in all STUNNING.. The best weekend stay we have ever had. Thank you Melanie. We would love offer you and Emily a place to stay if you would explore Staffordshire.

Sister cottage to The Mouse House, Honeysuckle has all the charm of a small cosy country cottage. It looks out over the swimming pool it shares with Mouse House and is set in stunning scenery

Wonderful welcome pack. Freedom during arrival. Brief meeting the next morning and on departure, just right! We were made to feel completely welcome, all the information we needed was provided, so that the cottage was ours for the week.

We really enjoyed our stay at Crowcombe Court West Wing. The property has such an air of history about it, and is truly charming. Crowcombe is a perfect location to explore the hills or the coastal town. Despite its age, the property was snug and warm and had everything you could need amenity-wise. We would certainly return and recommend to those looking for a charming, character place to stay

Our welcome was a knock on the window and wave from David to my daughter unloading the car. Emails were brilliant getting us to the right entrances. Key waiting in key safe.

Martina was very good at communicating with me, answering lots of questions about the area. She was flexible on our arrival as well, which was most helpful. We were there to cycle, and she found us a good path to follow and provided us with a map, on arrival. We were greeted by her sister, Lisa, who couldn't have been more friendly or accommodating. She gave us a lovely tour of the impressive house and then showed us to our room. The room is large and cool, with a good en-suite. There are other rooms that are more 'grand', but Lisa advised that this would allow us a whole floor to ourselves that night. The room was more than sufficient and nothing was too much trouble. We paid an additional amount for an English breakfast the next morning (lovely bacon!) and chatted to Lisa and her mum who were interesting and fun. Highly recommended if you are interested in seeing some beautiful countryside (I'm from Somerset, but had not seen this area) or if you love big, old, interesting country houses and nice people! The rooms that Lisa is updating are very glamorous. So if you're considering a treat, try one of those!

Not your average B&B at all, but an amazing house (and household) to be part of. We (a party of 2 families) were warmly welcomed by the family who really treated us as visitors in their house - eg. an impromptu picnic dinner in the backyard after restaurant plans didn't work out had them supplying all the plates, cutlery etc we needed. Most of all they were very accommodating of our young guests (4 children aged 3 and under). We basically had a whole floor of the house to ourselves - bedrooms and bathrooms. Then downstairs there was a beautiful dining room for breakfast and the adults enjoyed relaxing in the grand drawing room after the kids were in bed. A lovely stay.

We were made every welcome on our very short visit. Sorry we had to leave so early the next morning without saying good bye.
